Placed first in Scotland and later in London, and timed more than a dozen years before the war, this story follows the intertwined fortunes of a brother and sister, members of a singularly happy, artistically-sensitive, and romantically-minded family, into whose tranquillity there crashes a queer, brilliantly gifted realist. Contact with him indeed colours, whether they will or no, the lives of all the people who meet him, even after his mysterious disappearance; and especially that of the girl whom, judged by ordinary standards, he treats so ill. Happiness has a hundred faces, and that which she learns to see will set readers questioning. _Extra Crown 8vo. 7s. net._ THE HUMAN CIRCUS By J. MILLS WHITHAM Author of ‘_Fruit of Earth_.’ In his new novel, Mr Mills Whitham, while developing his realistic art, leaves sombre tragedy for picaresque comedy. The tale carries the girl Zillah through early years in a North Devon hamlet, adventures on Exmoor, the roads, and at the West Country Fairs, excitements in London, and leaves her back again at the hamlet, ripe in her own wisdom. Peasants, show-folk, gipsies, nimble vagabonds, philosophers and fools, make their bow and enliven the Circus. _Extra Crown 8vo. 7s. net._ SIR LIMPIDUS By MARMADUKE PICKTHALL Author of ‘_Oriental Encounters_,’ etc. A Novel of the plenteous days before the war. The author has essayed the high imaginative task of investing the established order with the mantle of romance. It is not the mantle of Don Quixote nor of Tartarin de Tarascon: but it is the best and gayest cloak of humour which the author could devise consistently with the sentiments of awe and reverence with which he naturally approached the subject. _Extra Crown 8vo. 7s. net._ THE QUIETNESS OF DICK By R.
